i mean this is fine and all but why not housing for everyone aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa
i guess its the best the people involved can do i won't shame them for trying
It seems like there could be a call back to multi-generational housing as the most well-off racial groups do this in the US.
edit: Indians and East Asians before someone asks
@icedquinn when all you can do is a band-aid fix, it seems reasonable to do it for people who have their applications (jobs, apartments etc.) rejected disproportionally often i guess
@mia it annoys me when i see intersectional things but iām channeling the jocko desk ornament and instead saying
good. someone is trying.
One of the reasons that many cultures have the multi-generational home is that there are obviously benefits to it, including being able to aggregate wealth, but it also has some negative sides such as aggregating a lot of power in the hands of whichever family member happens to own the house, a lack of flexibility since individuals are tied to their extended family.

I said race instead of ethnicity so people would read the post. :3
Anyway, I've heard of people trying to figure out how to get Americans to follow suit. It's also method to ensure their kids have kids as the parents will come in and help as live-ins even if not needed for economic reasons.
